Strawberry Lassi Recipe | Refreshing Indian Strawberry Yogurt Smoothie




There’s something irresistibly refreshing about a tall glass of chilled Lassi on a warm day. Traditionally popular across North India, Lassi is one of those timeless yogurt-based drinks that instantly cools, refreshes, and comforts.

While the classic Sweet Lassi remains a favourite, fruit-based variations have slowly become popular over the years, adding their own vibrant flavours and colours to this humble drink.

One such delicious variation is the Strawberry Lassi, creamy, fruity, mildly tangy, and absolutely refreshing.

I happened to spot some beautiful ripe strawberries on sale and simply couldn’t resist bringing them home. Their deep ruby-red colour and sweet aroma instantly inspired me to make this lovely Strawberry Lassi.

The combination of fresh strawberries and thick yogurt works beautifully together, creating a drink that feels both indulgent and nourishing at the same time.

Strawberries are rich in Vitamin C, fibre, potassium, folate, and antioxidants, making this drink not only delicious but also wonderfully refreshing and wholesome.

The best part?

It comes together in minutes.

Strawberry Lassi

(A Refreshing Strawberry Yogurt Smoothie)


Ingredients

Strawberries – 10 to 12 ripe berries

Thick Yogurt – 4 cups

Milk – 1 cup

Sugar – 5 to 6 tbsp

Ice cubes – 4 to 5

The above measurements yield about 4 to 5 tall glasses of Lassi.


Method

While buying strawberries, always choose ripe berries with a deep red colour, as they naturally give the Lassi its beautiful pink hue and sweeter flavour.

Wash the strawberries thoroughly, remove the stems, and keep them ready.

In a blender, add the strawberries and sugar first and blend into a smooth puree. I have used slightly more sugar in this recipe because strawberries can sometimes be mildly tart, and yogurt too may carry a slight sourness depending on its freshness. You may adjust the sugar according to your taste.

Next, add the thick yogurt, milk, and ice cubes into the blender. Blend again until the mixture turns smooth, creamy, and frothy.

If required, add a little water to adjust the consistency. The Lassi should be thick yet pourable.

Pour into tall glasses, top with a few extra ice cubes if desired, and serve chilled.

Creamy, fruity, and wonderfully refreshing, this Strawberry Lassi is perfect for warm afternoons, summer brunches, or simply when you want something deliciously cooling and comforting.

Enjoy every sip!
